Hollywood tooth sparkle

I hope I haven't asked this before, but . . . I'm looking for an animated gif of a "specular highlight" as its called to use in my interview movies when the subject introduces themselves. I've tried to make one to no avail, and the odd one I've downloaded is of poor quality. A real cheesy sparkle is what I'm after. Can anyone supply me with a good one please?

Try the Sony Glint FX with the Center Mask, Glint preset in Vegas Pro 9.0.

Here's something I made a while ago for just that purpose.

Twinkle.avi

Though I suppose a well placed lens flare would work just as well if not better.

Johnny - I just spent 1/2 mucking about with the glint Fx and couldn't get it to do much at all. Have you got any other recommended settings to try?
